PaperWorkers Local

Friday, September 27, 2013

Somewhat in keeping with the spirit of the season, the Exhibition at PaperWorkers Local for October's Third Friday will be "The Odd Salon." Rather than things Halloween-ish, we're looking for a wider range of odd, strange, unsettling, creepy, surreal and so on. You may not think of your work in this way, but keep in mind that being put in context with odder things can sometimes pull more straight laced work in another direction.

At the title suggests, this is going to be a salon style show. So, we'd like to have a good number of works up.

If you'd like to contribute work on or of paper give us a idea of what you have in mind in an email to paperworkerslocal@gmail.com. Include "Odd Salon" in the subject line.

Work should be dropped at the shop on Monday Oct 14 after 1:00 pm. We'll hang the show on Monday - Wednesday and the opening will be on Friday the 18th.

We ask that in the event of a sale the artist make a donation of 20% to PaperWorkers Local.

We are currently exhibiting work from members of Huntsville's Green Pea Printmakers Collective to exhibit in our space for September's Third Friday in Forest Park.

We are very excited to be able to work with the members of Green Pea who have been promoting printmaking and other forms of paper based art work for the past three years.

Located on the first floor of historic Lowe Mill in Huntsville, Green Pea is a low-toxicity studio that provides resident and local artists access to equipment in a variety of fine art print media, including wood/linocut, etching, letterpress, screenprint and bookmaking.
